The wise say:
Be like water.
It carries the heaviest loads on its surface,
and holds the most precious things within it.
When it falls on dead land, it brings it to life.
When a rock stands in its way, it simply flows around it.
It is not affected by appearances.
Whether you serve it in cups of gold
or in cups made of clay,
*it does not change*.
